And for some reason, the seafood mimicked by these Hot Water Fairies is incredibly plump, with a soft texture that makes one want to squeeze them again and again.
Of course, you can't squeeze them for too long. When the Sea Urchin Fairy in Ian's hand had its eyes turn into spirals from being squished, the young man reluctantly released it—it's like playing with a stress ball, but overdo it and the stress ball might end up stressed itself.
To be honest, Frost Butterfly and the Hot Water Fairies turned out to be far more capable than Ian had expected. He initially thought he'd need to oversee the labyrinth occasionally or use his labyrinth permissions to possess Shasha for inspections, but now it seemed they had everything under control.
That's fairies for you—always appearing as though they're fooling around, but in reality, they take their work quite seriously.
On the flip side, when fairies are working seriously… could they actually be fooling around?
